Which of the following equations is steeper?
y=-2x+1
y=-5/4x+7
y=x-1
y=5x-1

Option 4: y = 5x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope, or rate of change, represents the ratio of the vertical change (in y) to the horizontal change (in x) of points along the line. Thus, the slope is a means of measuring the steepness of a given line.

Generally speaking, slopes with higher values tend to have steeper lines.

In comparing the slopes of the given options:

Option 1: slope = -2

Option 2: or 1.25

Option 3: slope = 1

Option 4: slope = 5

Option 4 has the highest slope of 5. Therefore, the graph of y = 5x - 1 has the steepest line.  

Attached is the graphed equations to prove that the graph of the equation in Option 4 has the steepest line.

step-by-step explanation:

in standard form:

a= dictionaries

b= maps

you have to buy 3 dictionaries, so put a 3 next to the a (dictionaries) so that you can multiply them by each other.

a3+b= 60 (the amount of money you have)

we already know the cost of a=15 so replace a with $15

($15 x 3)+b=60

multiply 15 and 3 to get $45 and replace it with $45

45+b=60

and then replace b with 15 to get the total:

45+15=60

that means you have $15 left after buying 3 dictionaries.

15 divided by the cost of a map ($5) equals 3.

so you can buy 3 maps.

sorry if it was confusing!
